Allow me to whinge

Yes, I'm aware this is a bad post. Yes, it's annoying whining. Yes, I'm aware that I'm one of the few consistent winners at my game precisely because people play so amazingly badly (plus, of course, the CLP effect). But man - you know, the days when you leave the table barely up on the session, when you should have tripled or quadrupled up?

Three-bet pre with AK to $60, get called in four spots. Flop K73 rainbow. Bet $175, call call. Turn 9 still rainbow. Bet $375, call. River J, villain - middle-aged Asian woman that has folded any board with any obvious flush or straight regardless of her holding all night - confidently ships her remaining $400, I am confused, can't see what the hell she has other than a set, can't see how I can ever be good here, so I shrug-fold, and she turns over....J3o.

45 minutes later. Pocket Jacks. I 3-bet pre to $65 over half a table of limpers. Middle-aged Asian call, clueless short-stack call, semi-drunk businessman call. Flop T42 two spades. Clueless short stack open shoves for $300, last time he did this with A4o on a Q-high board. I sigh and ship it, figuring I'll just be heads up vs clueless short stack. 99.9% certain I'm way ahead. .
